Muhtasari
Hysteria, historically diagnosed in women for various ailments, reflects medical sexism and societal views. Originating from Greek beliefs about the uterus, it evolved through centuries, often linked to women's behavior and mental health. The term was phased out in the late 20th century, revealing a legacy of trivializing women's pain in medicine.
